Yeah Luke really got the shaft in this deal. Leia goes to a planet of abundant resources, normal climate, and a life of luxury. Meanwhile Luke goes to a planet with 2 suns and gets to sweat to death.

George made a lot of but this was not one of them. Shoehorning Yoda into the conclusion feels off. It would make more sense to show him in Degobah BEFORE Padme's funeral so that it was kepyt separate from the Skywalker conclusion

[calwoods]

To answer, I think it makes zero difference to what we got as we already knew Yoda went to Dagobah.

[CATDRL]

This and many other scenes were deleted to keep the runtime to theater specifications. It would have been nice to have a director's cut.

[WarRobots-Apollyon]

I don't think the additional scene with Yoda would have taken anything away from the movie. Revenge of the Sith is my favorite of the prequels.

[jidion]

i like how the yoda scene is a bridge between the old generation and the new, and kinda foreshadows luke going to dagobah eventually

[mattt]

Fun fact. Did you know Yoda actually had 2 huts on Dagobah? One fir the wet season and one for the dry season.
During the wet season his guy would get flooded so before that season came he trekked across the planet to higher ground to his other hut.
This is from the CERTAIN POINT OF VIEW book.

I think this is absolutely beautiful. Its all the musical montages that hit you emotionally all at the same time. The Imperial March, Yoda's theme, Leia's theme, The Twin Suns all coming together as if they were telling all the fans, thank you.

[likeluptid]

I like better what they did in The Clone Wars. Qui-Gon Jinn invited Yoda to Dagobah a few weeks earlier in the timeline. And there, Yoda learned a fundamental truth about the Force that the Jedi had not known before. I'm glad they left it out of the movie.

[lorisewsstuff]

Well done. I like Yoda's sad sigh at the end of his scene.

[Gooniegirl]

I agree with George keeping Yoda's arrival cut, but damn nice job!!!

[Salsa_Shark]

Post-credit scenes weren’t really a thing back then, but it would have been good in that spot.

[dgerdi]

Your presentation with Yoda arriving on Dagobar is way better.

[Reeal]

I think the scene fits perfectly fine and helps tie off one more little loose end.

[btsndcts]

The person who has nothing to loose is the the most dangerous.

[scott]

Very nice edit, especially the music! But... yeah, I think keeping the focus on the Skywalker family was the right move.

Yoda's ending is kept in the Matthew Stover novelisation of Revenge of the Sith.
The audiobook is spectacular, with sound effects, music, and brilliant narration by Jonathan Davis.
The ending reads as follows:

The long night, has begun. Huge solum crowds line Palace Plasa in Theed, the capital of Naboo, as six beautiful white gualaar draw a flower-draped open casket, baring the remains of a beloved seniter, through the triumphal arch.
Her fingers finally, and forever clasping, a snippet of japor. One that had been carved long ago, by the hand of a nine year old boy, from an obscure desert planet in the far outer rim.
On the jungle planet of Dagobah, a Jedi master inspects the unfamiliar swamp of his exile.
From the bridge of a star destroyer, two Sith lords, stand with a sector governor named Tarkin, and survey the growing skeleton of a spherical battle station, the size of a moon.
But even in the deepest night, there are some who dream of dawn. On Alderon, the prince consort, delivers a baby girl into the loving arms of his queen.
And on Tatooine, a Jedi master brings an infant boy to the homestead of Owen and Beru Lars.
Then he rides his Eopi off into the Jundland wastes towards the setting suns.
The dark is generous, and it is patient, and it always wins.
But in the heart of its strength, lies weakness.
One lone candle, is enough, to hold it back.
Love, is more than a candle, love, can ignite the stars.
